Why do you think LGBT can't reproduce? I know someone who is literally the spawn of a lesbian with a turkey baster.



>Why do you think LGBT can't reproduce?

Well, B (and maybe T's) can.

But LG cannot by definition, except if they momentarily act like non LG's by reproducing with other partners against their own sexual preferences.

And that if they _do_ have the will to reproduce, considering that in primates in nature it's a strictly heterosexual deal (and in fact, the male/female sexes were evolved as a means to that very end).

In addition, for several prominent LG thinkers, "gay marriage" and "having a baby" (surrogates, etc), is the losing proposition of adopting/mimicking the dominant paradigm. Essentially it's the opposite of feminism.


I don't have any interest in having kids, but I really don't think that wanting artificial insemination means that you're secretly heterosexual.

in nature it's a strictly heterosexual deal

It's actually quite natural for other orientations as well:

I can see this happening in nature if maybe both of the original parents got killed off or something. The presence of homo-penguins means that the offspring might get rescued and safely reared by the happy couple instead of perishing.
